Expeditions

In each summer and February break (and sometimes in between) Slopend members organize trips to survive in nature, climb a mountain, to sleep in an ice cave, or just to explore what the world has to offer. You can join these trips. It is not an all-inclusive package however, if you join you’ve got to contribute: e.g. book the plane tickets, figure out the route or find out what the wild life is like. You’ll also need to sort out your gear; fortunately a lot of Slopers are willing to lend you gear if they aren’t using it.

Slopend does organize a few weekend trips throughout the year to e.g. the Ardennes. On these weekend trips most things are taken care of for you (place to stay, food, the route), and they allow you to gain the necessary experience to go on a real expedition.
